Nice! I casted about 400 shootable. 44 cal today out of ww. Was a bit chilly on the driveway at 0 degrees, but I managed to limp my drippy/shorting out, pot along. Can't wait for a new one someday!

The one good thing about being permanently and totally broken is any day I feel up to it is casting day.

This is a great mold. I can cut the spruce and dump without any effort at all. I might have to let it cool a half minute every 5th or 6th cast. I might cast up another 20 or 30 lb's before I start lube-sizing.
I'm loading these with 6gr's of Unique in 357 cases. They shoot great.

I got tired of lube-sizing today. I decided to PC my wadcutters. I went from one at a time to 140 at a time. Never PC'd wadcutters before. Looking forward to test shooting . See what's best.

Years back, my buddies grandpa used wadcutters for small game harvesting. I walked in to their shed right after he made like 1k casts. Back then i had no idea what reloading was, so i think i assumed it was illegal like everything else they did out there. I do remember his tray looking like this.
